Vibrational temperatures in carbon dioxide lasers

A. A. Mikaberidze, V. N. Ochkin


Abstract: The results of measurements of the relative intensities of the vibronic bands of the 2⁺ system of N₂ were used to calculate the vibrational temperatures in the discharges employed in CO₂ lasers. The population inversions of the laser levels were also calculated. The results obtained were compared with those published by other workers. The radial dependences of the vibrational temperature were deduced.
